pg_dump weirdness

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I ran a pg_dump for a colleague, as he needs to move some data into a new database. I ran the command as:

pg_dump -h original_server -t original_schema.table_name -U user -W dbname > table_name.sql

after the dump was completed with no errors, I went into the target instance, and truncated the target table. I also had to do a sed operation to change the schema name in the dump file for the schema in the target. I verified that sed properly modified the file. Now, after all this, I used:

psql -h target_server -U user newdbname < table_name.sql

This loaded with a handful of warnings, like table already exists, the sequence already exists, and some privileges could not be set. After those warnings it ran for more than 1/2 hour to load the table. The problem is that after this was all done. I went back into the target instance, and checked the newly loaded table. There was nothing in it, i.e., 0 rows.

The pg_dump and the output file claim the pg_dump version was 12.6, while the server it ran against was 11.9. Both instances are AWS RDS Aurora-PostgreSQL ones. Any ideas why there was no data in the table? Other than on inputting it using psql, there were no other errors.
